NOTE: in the latest version of Fractal, the grapher is not included (sorry!) because it is not compatible with Fractal's new gun. I may eventually write a new grapher (and I do have plans to do so); Fractal's new gun would make for an extremely powerful graphing utility because of the pluggability of its segmentation axis. For this reason, I might simply create the grapher as a new robot. In the meantime, if you'd like to use this grapher, you can ask me (Vuen) or anyone who has it for a copy of Fractal 0.32.


Like other robots such as StatistRobot, GloomyDark and the Floods, Fractal 0.32 comes with a graphing utility to show a graph of your robot's movement profile. To use it, simply fight your robot against Fractal, then browse to \robocode\.robotcache\vuen.Fractal_0.32.jar\vuen\cfFractal and type java Grapher

Here are some screenshots of it:

The graphing utility segments data across 101 angles and 80 distance ranges.

Anyway, I'm not sure how correct the math behind this utility is and if it's buggy or not, so trust other graphers before this one at least for now. I'll double-check it and improve it in a later version. Let me know what you think! :)
